Capital spending is part of cash from investing, and dividends paid, shares bought back and shares issued are part of cash from financing. Each is shown as an amount on a line of its own, and the section's other items are in its total only. No cash flow statement is on record for the years to Mar 2017, Mar 2018, Mar 2019 and Mar 2020. Dividends paid is left blank for the six months to Sep 2026: the cash-flow statement states no dividends paid, while the company's own dividend record shows one paid in the period, so the line is not given.
